| |
3.16.70-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Buland Singh <bsingh@redhat.com>
commit 24d48a61f2666630da130cc2ec2e526eacf229e3 upstream.
Commit '3d035f580699 ("drivers/char/hpet.c: allow user controlled mmap for user processes")' introduced a new kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap, that is required to expose the memory map of the HPET registers to user-space. Unfortunately the kernel command line parameter 'hpet_mmap' is broken and never takes effect due to missing '=' character in the __setup() code of hpet_mmap_enable.
Before this patch:
dmesg output with the kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap=1
[ 0.204152] HPET mmap disabled
dmesg output with the kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap=0
[ 0.204192] HPET mmap disabled
After this patch:
dmesg output with the kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap=1
[ 0.203945] HPET mmap enabled
dmesg output with the kernel command line parameter hpet_mmap=0
[ 0.204652] HPET mmap disabled
